An Electronic Laboratory Notebook (ELN) designed for pharmaceutical discovery chemists to draw on prior experience, develop new methods, access relevant information, and integrate with critical systems.
Symyx Discovery Notebook enables chemists in small molecule pharmaceutical discovery to plan, record, and analyze research, experiments, and procedures more efficiently and effectively than with traditional paper lab notebooks, typically saving 5–10% of their time when performing a series of related reactions.
Search for experiments providing similar products or reactions to utilize the knowledge and expertise of colleagues. Access and incorporate the structures and data from corporate and external sources (e.g., reagent inventory, registry).
- Compute quantities
- Identify reactants and products
- Calculate stoichiometry
- Scale reactions
- Label products for analysis
- Attach analyses
- Utilize common and customized phrases and materials to improve the speed and accuracy of entry
- Incorporate keywords, defined properties, and safety information to classify and find relevant experiments
- Associate analytical data appropriately to procedures, products, and reactions
- Collect experiments into a single report to present designs and discuss progress
- Compare experiments to determine conditions or materials that caused significant change
- Show relationships of how materials were created and used through the Symyx unique Reaction Relay visualization capability
- Evaluate multiple pathways with the respective yields to a desired material through Retrosynthetic Analysis visualization
